Yankees destroy Twins in every way for ALDS stranglehold

The latest rendition of what has become a non-competitive situation when the Yankees and Twins get together in the postseason was on display Saturday night, and it looked very familiar.

That meant the Yankees assaulted Twins pitching and the Twins’ bats were no match for the Yankees’ arms.

As a result, the Yankees trounced the Twins, 8-2, in Game 2 of the ALDS in front of a sold-out crowd of at Yankee Stadium. The victory sent the Yankees to Minneapolis with a 2-0 edge in the best-of-five affair that resumes Monday night with Game 3 at Target Field.
